Clearly he was lacking a bit in technique after the layoff but damn he's a magic little player.

That run he made back to save us from conceding another one was fantastic. Great player. But why does he always cut into the middle/to his right side with his right foot? It's such an obvious move and opposition players know it. He really limits his possibilities when he only does that. Just look at Neymar's dribbling.

He is back. Lets get 3rd now!

I actually saw him skin a few players by going the opposite way today. Was pleasantly surprised lol

Anyway, remarkable player. Nobody in our front 3 even comes close. Hoping he saves our season now.

If both Alexis and Özil stay fit until the end of this season, we still have a chance.

I love the attitude of Alexis.

If he was playing games instead of Theo, Ox or Gibbs lol:) we would be 5-6 points clear at the top. The guy took on Chelsea all on his own and if he was firing on all cylinders, would have won us the game or gotten atlas a draw. Fantastic player. We need someone like him when he is not on the pitch. Enough with the Theos and Oxs.

Once in a while you see him dribble to his left side with his RIGHT FOOT. He just doesn't use his left foot, unless it's to go on the bus (original, i know). It's a shame really, it would make him an even bigger threat. Still a fantastic player of course. Neymar is a great example of how devastating you can be if you can dribble both ways, with both feet. But even someone like Deulofeu becomes a big threat with his usage of his left foot as well as his right of course.

The one positive from today (well, Bellerin was good too).

Gives me hope we can recover and get back in a winning run with this guy now. Was waltzing past Chelsea players for fun.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Such a brilliant player!

Hopefully him and Giroud can finally click.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

he looks so sharp and hungry please stay fit Alexis we need you

 

[Hunta]

Miles ahead of the rest of our wingers/forwards.

 

[redwhiteAustrian]

Proper player, especially compared to the rest of our lot who often seem to go through the motions during games/months/seasons.

 

[razörist]

The only bright point of today is his return today, he'll play an hour against Burnley and will be a starter in the BPL from then on.

How weird it was to see a player, oozing confidence and just taking players on no problem. walcott has been dreadfull on that left hand side. Also with flamini and ramsey's incompetence to create anything, his return will take some of the burden of özil, both creatively and the man marking problem. How are you gonna mark both özil and alexis out of the game? Cant wait to see them doubling up on the same side again.

Alexis having an Aguero like impact and Coquellin returning fast in midfield is the only thing that can save us.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

He just needs match fitness now but it was great to see him back. Coq back next hopefully.

 

[RUS arsenal]

Bigger cojones than the rest of the squad combined out there today! If Coq returns then perhaps there will be enough cojones to cover the whole team for the rest of the season...
